Uplift Gradus Preparatory

What Makes Us Unique

Uplift Gradus opened in 2013 and serves grades PreK through 5th.  The beautiful campus is located in DeSoto and was built to allow more students the opportunity to attend nearby Uplift Hampton for middle school and high school.  Uplift Hampton is nationally recognized as one of the top high schools in the nation.  Students at Uplift Gradus will have automatic admission to Uplift Hampton when moving from 5th to 6th grade and will benefit from the same high quality primary school education.
